Q
Was the regime successful in building a Volksgemeinschaft in the years 1933- 1939?
A
YES!!!
Though total control was not achieved, but in just 6 years it would be unrealistic to expect complete transformation of belief system and social norms, however the Nazi state was able to by 1948 get 57% of the state to belief the concept of National Socialism was good and wanted
Propaganda and censorship key to building this Volksgemeinschaft
Control if Youth = effective
Economic priority of building autarky = effective short term but not for long term
women = arguably effective
Church= weakened but some religion remained powerful
=In these years major advances towards Volksgemeinschaft, successfully, as lack of major opposition
